Of course Kirk fell in love with Cliff once he saw him playing with a wah.
😂😂😂
LOLZ!
He fell in love with the wah
Kirk using Wah is probably a nod to Cliff. It's maybe why he still used it so much
Cliff Burton's iconic things :
1. Jeans jaket
2. Red hair
3. Brutal headbangs
4. Red Rickenbacker Bass
Cliff is the legend ✨
How could you not mention his bell bottoms?
And his great big, huge, outrageously mind-blowingly long middle finger.
misfits shirt and tattoo
His black aria bass too
An Aria pro 2 sb 1000 specially made for him too
In Metallica Cliff and Kirk complimented each other’s style so much. Cliff’s bass lines and solos blended with Kirk’s solos and riffs like no other. For me this was the heart of early Metallica, their melodies and harmony are just sublime. James riffs are legendary of course, as can still be heard today. However, the bass and the solos just aren’t quite the same as they used to be. R.I.P Major Rager you still impact the lives of people and are missed by so many still to this day.
CLIFF BURTON: THE MAAY-JERR RAAY-GERR........
ON-THE-FOURSTRING MOTHERFUCKERRRRRRR........

@BRETT he sibg s the newer stuff really good, because he reinvented hinself... Remember that he blew his vocal strings when they were touring after the black album...
I've been pondering on that a bit, lately. It's insane how quickly Metallica went from the "Power Metal" demo to Ride the Lightning. And Cliff's other stuff, like the Maxwell Tapes (highly suggested, if you appreciate noise music or industrial along the lines of Throbbing Gristle) was very loose and disorganized, although superb if you dig that kind of experimental music. I think Kirk really helped him direct his expansive musical knowledge, both as a student and collaborator, in a way other people never quite did. James Hetfield, too, though I think Kirk and Cliff definitely had a special bond both professionally and as friends. They were the two guys in Metallica who would trip on acid together; Kirk has spoken about Cliff's regular use of psychedelics, and it's kinda weird, but if you view Metallica during the Cliff era through the lens of psychedelic rock it actually makes a lot of sense. But they kinda kept that hidden from Lars and James. They became much more mechanical for Justice, not that I have anything bad to say about Justice, it's just that the psychedelic aspect was gone, though I figure Kirk continued to carry the torch; maybe Jason did too, but I've never read or heard anything about him using psychedelics, and though it wouldn't surprise me, he was not given the opportunity to influence Metallica anywhere near what Cliff was, unfortunately.
He had a whaa pedal....kirk was in love at that moment
I noticed that too hah
Dude this man is 17 years old telling this story. It's sick to hear him so happy telling the story. Cliff had a real impact on people
This was a joy to listen to! The stories of how these guys met when they were kids and just figuring life out and being themselves... very cool to hear the candid friendship of kirk and cliff and what they bonded over.
You can tell Cliff was easy in his own skin. Something most of us could only dream of. And the way Kirk talks about him reveals a lot about himself and how cool he is.
Sounds like cliff was the one Kirk could relate to the most in the band
Probably all of them except Lars
explains why he gets zero input in metallica now.
@@spirit_in_black9375 kirk wrote plenty on every album except kill ‘‘em all and hardwired, and that’s because he “lost his phone” that all his riffs. it’s not that he has no input, he just didn’t write anything for the last album
First time I've heard Kirk NOT stutter
Badass story. And I love the way he told it. Its great to hear someone tell a story with that much enthusiasm.
Yep. That's our Kirk. 😏
i love hearing these cliff stories. he really sounds like one hell of a guy. RIP.
Cliff “made the band” with Metallica too… the magic slowly left after he passed.
100% agree. IMO Cliff was the leader of the band, the quiet leader.
It was already gone by the time ...And Justice for All came out. After that they really went downhill with every album since then worse than the one before it. 1991's Black album was the last Metallica album that I ever bought. It was mediocre diluted watered down CRAP.
@@couchwarrior2449 same… but justice had old glories.
@@PastorShayne To me AJFA was a dry, lifeless, sterile, studio fabrication. You're right though, compared to everything else they put out it's a "great" album. It has its moments.
@@couchwarrior2449 i agree 100%. black album was a good album, but not a good MetallicA album
Man, its so cool to hear Kirk talk about Cliff in this way! 🙂 They really miss him 🥲
R.I.P. Clifford Lee Burton 💔
This was from the Dean Delray interview. If you're a Kirk fan look it up. Very long and cool interview!🤘🏻
It would've been a joy to be able to see/hear Metallica live with either the Mustaine/Burton or the Burton/Hammett lineup. I reckon seeing them in '85 or '86 before Cliff died would've been the bomb.
I did, it was awesome
Got to see them in 86 opening for Ozzy, my first concert. Shoulda been the other way around, too short a show, but they fucking killed it, Ozzy was fat Elvis at that time.
I just Love discovering and listening to those very interesting annecdotes about Metallica's early days! What a Blast!
I wanna play D&D with kirk and cliff, holy shit. Then we can jam afterward.
Best Cliff story ever. Kirk joined Metallica to play with him
You do an awesome job of digging up stuff I've never heard/seen before, and I've seen a LOT.
I was going to say the same thing. It's amazing how 40 years later the discovered content still comes out.
Yeah Kirk Hammett remembers heaps. He joined MetallicA to replace Dave Mustaine in the band. Has been in the band for quite awhile now and it’s his leading them that’s very important to be cherished for lead guitar playing. Kirk is my favourite guitarist. His been along for the ride into now 40 years of MetallicA’s musical contributions. The band is exactly one freight train that keeps going down the rails. It’s great to hear history from their early and humble beginnings. Love it. I have the year and a half in the life of MetallicA..both parts. I treasure my precious VHS 📼
Cool to hear stories about Cliff and he was most definitely a badass and will always be remembered and missed like Hendrix.. he changed metal forever and helped forge a new genre now called Thrash. His death changed the trajectory of the band as well as how the electric bass is played in metal today. Regarding the headbanging thing... it does go back a bit further than 1979.. just look at old Sabbath footage with Ozzy & Geezer or old Zeppelin shows with the front row audience is headbanging like they're at a Maiden show well before 1979.. you can even see it in some old Jerry Lee Lewis videos although a cruder version could still be called headbanging.
Trash? Or Thrash? I genuinely don't know if that was a typo.
@@dropkickmurphy4114 thanks.. typed too fast.. that's what happens when your in a hurry cause you're at work.. lol
EZ Street played my high school quad at lunch time (Castro Valley, CA) in 1980.
This is one of the coolest stories I've ever heard. Thank you for sharing this.
Awesome story Kirk! Loved it. Metallica is my favourite band of all time! For Whom The Bell Tolls was the first song i heard with Metallica and i was blown away. Cliff Burton RIP ❤
This is everything to me! Thank you! I love that Cliff was weird! I'm fuckin weird man! hahahahahhah.
I’m fucken weird and a Misfit, too. It’s good to be an original. Copies aren’t the true
@@rosiewhitfield123 Fuck yeah Rosie! Stay weird! \m/
Weirdness is a strength baby
My heart still hurts when I think of Cliff and the old days of metal :(
Thanks for that!! That was so cool to hear.
This is why Metallica is the biggest band ever!. They are always family!. These boys went through a lot of pain and still producing!. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
thx for sharing, i love listening from rob and kirk
You’re doing great digging these clips up
This put a smile on my face. Made me feel like I was there when it happened. 🤘🖤
Great story and thanks for this opportunity
Thank you for sharing that cool story, 80s was there best times.
amazing clip my friend! keep posting these.
Such Amazingly Story!!
Thank you Kirt..
Cliff,was Trully One of a Kind!!
Much Respect to U all..
😊🙌🏽🤙🏼🏄🌊🌴🌴🌴🌴
I was 8 y/o When Dawn Of The Dead was released, Watched it at a drive in,,, It gave me nightmares for weeks LOL, Salem's Lot, Phantasm, Exorcist and even Aliens freaked me out, Loved it
4:11 DotD is indeed the definitive George A. Romero movie. Cliff had such great taste in movies too.
Cliff 'Em All
Love it!
Such an awesome story!!
Glorious!
I did not know that Kirk saw Cliff before Trauma.
Great story!
Thank you for digging it out.
Where did you get it from?😮
Wow never heard this before. Cliff was the best! 🤘🥁🤘
I miss Cliff every day!
Cliff f*cking Burton man the Legend that mas was a bass player beast no one can’t touch him PERIOD god bless him
I've never seen these pics of Cliff before
Happy birthday Cliff❤🎸🥞👉🏾
Love these personal stories about Cliff. He was the leader according to a former roadie I work with sometimes
Without a doubt
Incredible story.
Yes.
I love this story. 3 days ago I visited the site where Cliff died and it was surreal. RIP Cliff there will never be another like you.
Good story I like hearing those stories
All i felt was sadness, i didnt know they were so close, cant believe kirk had to see what he did the night he died :'(
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I like rocker hippies and cliff I heard was a hippy that lived hard rock like me I was a pretty hippy girl liberated tie dyes shorts denim great figure teens so Metallica has a close place to my heart ❤️ I love you guys
Thats funny what Kirk said because he pretty much made the band when he was in metallica too. 🎸 😎
Man, this could be a friggin' movie. I wish someone would make that movie, but actually do it real justice. I would expect to be disappointed by any movie about the early days of Metallica. Really, it should be about the early days of the Bay Area metal scene; Exodus was HUGELY important to the development of American thrash, and remained a vital thrash band through to the present day.
Cool
Great story
Tomorrow it’s Cliffs Birthday!
Seen Metallica Live in 1990 and in 1997 but of course never seen Cliff...RIP Burton!
I'm going to tell what I think is a little neat context/detail about Cliff with my next film. It's tangentially related to / You can imagine the Annihilator song Alison hell until then!
Good job on Cliff Burton performing in two bands before Metallica well done Kirk Hammett being interviewed
Veey cool
Shouldn't there be a question to correlate to what we should be looking for on the doc??:o
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Cliff burton AND jim martin? I've never heard this before
Match made in heaven
Kirk: and they would also sell us beer!
Dean: amAZing
This interviewer guy is very easily impressed lol. I can imagine Kirk saying: "and afterwards Cliff ate a cheeseburger..." and the interviewer is like " OH WOW! HE ATE A CHEESEBURGER! THAT'S INCREDIBLE! I HAD NO IDEA HE ATE THOSE!!"
😆 🤣 😂
Where’s the full interview
All HAIL CLIFF!
You hear this? People wanting to meet each other. Something not really happening these days.
Kirk Hammett is one underrated guitarist that doesn't get the credit he deserves. He's too humble of an individual to except the credit anyways 🤘🎸🔥
*accept
His success is everything but "underrated"...
1:13 loading…
does anyone know which H.P. Lovecraft book Kirk was talking about?
2:47 the song easy street started playing in my head after Kirk said it. TMC traumatized their TWD fans. 😂
Who doesn't love H.P. Lovecraft and Zombies?
I certainly don't want to know anyone that isn't into them!
lars and james asleep at 6pm lmaooo
"How very rock 'n' roll." - Kirk Hammet
Poor Ron😞.
Everyone hates Ron. He was just a rich kid they mooched off of lol
He’s wearing a Blue Oyster Cult T-Shirt......awesome
Why people wanna make me miss cliff even more?
Kirk and Cliff drew cards to see who would get to sleep in the bunk bed that fateful night. Kirk is alive due to a random drawing of cards...I wonder if he ever thinks about that.
Ya think??
He thinks about it all of the time. He has survivor’s guilt.
Kinda goes to show you how small and insular their music scene was in No Cal.
Hp Lovecraft is the shit I just watched a movie with Nicholas cage that was one of his stories
Dave mustaine was the first one to seen him and told James and lars....that's when they got him In the band...cliff was Metallica!!!..
Considering what happened its obvious to expect a specific response.
However, I now know why kirk cries when talkin about cliff.
These guys were brothers across the board.
Kirk literally saw a reflection of himself die.
I haven't a clue, sorry.
?
@@onezerosevensix I didn't find any of the clues, thus i haven't a clue.
Imagine if Kirk and Cliff didn't switch bunks, in an alternative reality, who do you think would have filled Kirk's shoes?
Dave Must... nah, I'm just kidding. Whoever they picked would need to have a strong sense of humor or it would have been a revolving door of guitarists. I'm glad they figured that out by the time Rob came around, but I can't help but think the hazing Jason endured had a lot to do with that.
Alex Skolnick or Rob Flynn maybe
Avril Lavigne
Most iconic zombie was the fat zombie.
Yeah, I think it was called headbanging even back then. But otherwise, what great reminiscences! 😊
Cliff won kirks bunk the day the metallica died. Hows that for nuts?! To the hiStory
I was never a big fan of cliff. I thought he was just a geddy lee impersonator but never nearly as good as geddy. And cliff mentioned geddy a lot, used the same bass, played the same riffs. I actually liked the band a lot more with jason. He was more original than cliff was.
This isn't taking anything away from Jason, but Cliff was very original. I listen to Rush and I've never seen Cliff as an impersonator of Geddy Lee.
@@nckhed he tried to play pretty similarly and there are party of anesthesia that sound like they are pretty similar to stuff that geddy is doing in la villa strangiato for example.
Enough of dead man already it's been what 40 years plus
